A one dimensional nonuniform sediment transport model has been developed to predict the aggradation and degradation of riverbed based on unsteady St.Venant equations and total-load nonuniform sediment
The scour and silting variation of the riverbed will greatly change in future in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River after the operation of the Three Gorges reservoir in 2003.
One of the few regions of China with a suitable climate for rubber cultivation is Southern Yunnan.Due to increasing demand of rubber in Chinas growing economy, the area of rubber cultivation increased
Submerged vanes are an unobtrusive and cost-effective way for river engineers to stabilize a river channel.The vanes are small flow training structures designed and installed on the river bed to modif
Rivers and the ocean interact with each other in the estuarine area and they perform complicated dynamic functions in the fluvial process.In the estuarine areas many sluices were built to control the
The management of fiver mouth relates to water agency, ocean agency, land use agency, maritime agency and traffic agency.There are lots of laws in every region to manage the river mouth.Due to the unc
Riprap is a common measure for protecting fiver banks against lateral erosion and several methods exist to design them.However, they are generally limited to dumped medium size rocks.
In the Netherlands currently a large number of river intervention works are planned within the Room for the River Program (RfR) and the European Water Framework Directive (WFD).
Wire mesh gabions structures have been introduced since now 120 years in the civil engineering applications.Thanks to their inherent properties (monolithicity, flexibility, permeability, environmental
The alluvial river flows training usually requires an extensive knowledge of the water stream hydraulic/psammology characteristics, terrain geology and the properties of the soil where the alluvial fl
